> I have some Atarax (prescribed awhile back for anxiety) in the cupboard, is that similiar to the Vistaril? would that help? I went out and bought some Ginger capsules at the healthfood store. I am taking two in the morning and they seem to be helping. Not perfect, but much better. Taking the Zoloft at night is helping alot. I am starting to sleep normal again, thank God! I am not waking up early in the morning anymore like I was. Everyday is getting a bit better. Did you get daytime sleepiness on the Zoloft? I am feeling pretty tired. I am figuring a will give it a few more weeks and see if the Zoloft settles down before I start looking for a new option.

Hi, Atarax and Vistaril are the same thing (hydroxyzine), lucky you! You sound like you are doing pretty good to me. The "sleepiness" on Zoloft (despite sleeping OK)... it is probably just that SSRI-fog I'm afraid. I only felt like that on Zoloft a few hours post-dosing, then afterwards it was full-tilt get everything done now! I just thought of this today, but your Lamictal probably is contributing to the nausea and somnolence somewhat as well (but that one is definitely working it sounds to me). I usually try to avoid taking more than two barfogenic drugs simultaneously. Seriously, it sounds like you are on a really stable track-I would wait this out awhile and maybe try a little of your Atarax for the nausea (with the ginger stuff). good luck....
